		METHODS: One hundred one patients with VS were treated with fractionated SRT at a radiation level of 40 to 50 Gy administered in 20 to 25 fractions over a 5- to 6-week period.
		METHODS: Between November 1992 and August 2000, 88 patients with vestibular schwannomas were treated at the Harvard Cyclotron Laboratory with proton beam stereotactic radiosurgery in which two to four convergent fixed beams of 160-MeV protons were applied.
		METHODS: A retrospective study was performed using a prospectively acquired database of a consecutive series of 54 patients with VS who were treated with GKS during a 3.5-year period at an "open unit" gamma knife center.

	Rank aggregation methods for the Web
		Furthermore, Kemeny optimal aggregations are essentially the only ones that simultaneously satisfy natural and important properties of rank aggregation functions, called neutrality and consistency in the social choice literature, and the so-called Condorcet property [Young and Levenglick 1978].
		Borda's method [Borda 1781] is a "positional" method, in that it assigns a score corresponding to the positions in which a candidate appears within each voter's ranked list of preferences, and the candidates are sorted by their total score.
		In fact, it is possible to show that no method that assigns a weights to each position and then sorts the results by applying a function to the weights associated with each candidate satisfies the Condorcet criterion (see [Young 1974]).

		Their study compared children to adolescents and young adults, with the belief that children would respond differently to smoking messages since children tend to live in the present and may have difficulty thinking of long-term consequences of behavior.

		Distinguishes between safety (the principle of maximum safety which "dictates the choice of a hypothesis that does not go beyond the evidence.), strength (the hypothesis that asserts the most) and simplicity not to be confused with the former.
		The purpose of Kemeny's paper is to define the concept of simplicity, state the rule of simplicity in terms of that definition, and show it's methodological advantages without any metaphysical presuppositions.
